@Peter Kirn - I believe it was exported from Modul8 and then edited in Premiere. Here's another one showing the software(s) in action: http://vimeo.com/3268881 First images are Resolume, then Modul8. Hugo is now using VDMX.

Well, I'll say this: with version numbering, it's better to have users say ".1" should have been "1" than "1" should have been ".1"!

@Peter – Thanks so much for posting. I have to confirm with ocp/João but whatever is happening there is achievable within modul8. I suspect he did a render of a logical record and then edited it in an NLE of his choice to get the timings right. Its possible to achieve a similar goal by switching between layer sets.

And everyone thank you for the feedback. Inspiring to see all the work being done with the software.

Pricing for the full version if you are a new modul8 user remains same.

@lotec Thanks for your feedback. You have very good points and I will make sure to bring them to the attention of the team members.

On the pricing and DMX issue we really wanted to open up DMX to everyone. I am already seeing from our forums that people who had no idea what DMX is are now getting interested in lighting.

If DMX and the other features are not for you then we will likely be releasing 2.5.9 (oooh… like splicing hairs ain't it?) for people who do not need those features but have upgraded to Snow Leopard.

@Kevin&Peter the incremental version numbering is is due to the pace of development (admittedly slow but we hope to change that of course) and the road map being drawn up for future versions. The changes are just not drastic enough from the core interface to warrant a whole new number.

Back to bidding on used Trigger Fingers on eBay.

Four cam input is great! Triggers for vid launch is expected. Rock it or nuke it. TR.

Why not just call it 3.0? Technically when you add a new feature to a program doesn't that make it a whole number revision? .1 revision would be a bug fix or something added to an existing feature right? Good news at any rate, and the new features are a welcome addition to a good program.

r4f0: well, more experience always helps. On the other hand, I think that all of these tools have a fair number of features that line up, if you just look at them on paper. Actually compare the interfaces, though, and they're pretty wildly different, and that means working methods aren't exactly the same. I think one person may be profoundly more productive in VDMX than Modul8, and someone else might find just the opposite.

I appreciate that m8 has this new improvements, but i would like more innovative features, so, now its on the standard. I use VDMX too and it has more advanced techniques, by the other side m8 its very useful and much more practical than VDMX, i guess its a matter of time because i'm recently using VDMX.
